Why? We already gave them all of the lend / lease possible to fight the Nazis. What the hell was their struggle against Hitler about? In the last 78 years plus they have essentially become part of the Reich. All of those wasted lives in the Blitz, at Dunkirk, in the Battle of Britain, and through the execution of the Second World War only to become what you fought against? They owe us a damned refund!
But morally we couldn't accept it. We have Nazi thugs in Corporate America, the Democratic party, the party of FDR and Truman, now supports anti-Semites, and other thugs just as bad as the brownshirts (S.A.), we have turned our police agencies into the Gestapo, and our HSA and NSA into the SS. Looks like in the race to the Moon operation paperclip imported as much ideology as it did science. And during the pandemic our rights were suspended which made little Mengele's like Fauci just about orgasm. It's a Pogo moment, "I have met the enemy, and he is U.S."
Hell, next thing you know we'll be holding party rallies in Skokie.
Want an ultimately sobering moment? Based on today's morality and governmental trends controlled by corporations, we destroyed Hitler for being ahead of his time. The bastard was a monster, and here we are acting just like him and telling ourselves it will be for the better and end well. Insanity!
